[Ab]If you were a bluebird you'd be a sad one
I'd give you a [Db]true word (??)
But you've already had one
If you were a bl[Ab]uebird,
you'd be c[Eb]rying
[Db]You'd be flying h[Ab]ome
[Ab]If you were a raindrop,
You'd shine like a rainbow
And if you were a [Db]train stop,
The conductor would sing low
If you were a [Ab]raindrop,
You'd be [Eb]falling
[Db]You'd be calling [Ab]home
SOLO
[Ab]If you were a hotel honey
You'd be a grand one
But, if you hit a [Db]slow spell,
Do you think you could stand one
If you were a [Ab]hotel,
Well I'd lean on your [Eb]doorbell
[Db]I'd call you my ho[Ab]me
[Ab]If I was a highway,
I'd stretch alongside you
I'd help you pass [Db]byways that had dissatisfied you
If I was a h[Ab]ighway,
well I'd be [Eb]stretchin
[Db]I'd be fetchin you [Ab]home
SOLO
